A few hours later.
On a large, wide cargo ship.
Zabuza's right hand was covered with bandages, and he was holding a sword in his left hand, sitting on the deck with a stern look on his face.
Beside him was Bai, who was not tall.
He was holding the gauze and leaning on his toes, cleaning the scars on Zabuza's shoulder very gently.
I saw a few 'single dogs' in the distance and felt very resentful.
"Zabuza-sama, do you, do you really believe them?"
Bai glanced at Natsume and the others in the distance, and asked in a worried voice.
Especially that young man who is almost the same as himself, he is so strong!
Until this moment, Bai had not been able to recover from the shock of his instant defeat.
"Bai, how many years have you been following me?"
"Six years, seven months and twenty-three days..." Bai replied accurately.
"Then what do you think? Can I really return to [Mist Hidden Village] one day by myself?"
"Here……"
"It's difficult! In other words, almost impossible..."
Bai bit her red lips and answered truthfully.
Zabuza sighed.
"Yes! It's very difficult for us to survive just because the ANBU in the village is chasing us."
"There is no possibility of overthrowing the Yondaime's rule..."
"That kid is right. Even if I save money for the rest of my life, I won't be able to hire enough ninjas."
"So, what does it matter whether you believe it or not?"
"All I need is an opportunity."
"He can give me such an opportunity. It's enough for me to abandon all cowardice and fight to the death."
"What does he ask for? It doesn't matter."
"Will I die? It doesn't matter."
"I am a sinner who should have died long ago!"
Zabuza responded quietly, with a hint of almost burning fire in his eyes.
That was his last hope for the village.
"No, Zabuza-sama, you won't die! You can't die!"
"Death is the way home for a ninja. Shiro, when we reach the shore, you can escape quietly."
"Those people should leave you alone. As long as you run faster, you should be able to escape with your life."
Zabuza stared at the young man in front of him and warned in a deep voice.
It was as if he was explaining the aftermath.
To be honest, in his opinion.
This trip is almost lifeless!
Although those few Uchiha ninjas are strong, they can never defeat the entire [Kirigakure Village]!
"I will never leave you, Zabuza-sama! No matter where you are, I will be there too!"
Shiro leaned gently on Zabuza's broad shoulders and responded with utmost determination.
His life was saved by Zabuza-sama.
He will never escape alone!
…
now.
From the distance on the deck, I watched this disgusting and disgusting scene.
Natsume and the others couldn't help but secretly feel sad.
I really should throw this Kirigakure ghost directly into the sea and feed it to the fish, so as not to spread dog food like crazy here...
Seeing this, Yin Ye on the side quickly encouraged him.
"Young Patriarch, I think that little sister is very cute and pretty. How about you..."
"Bah! I'm a boy! Put away your dirty thoughts!"
"Huh? It's a boy!"
"But, Young Patriarch, you didn't say it yourself: As long as you are beautiful, you are right. There is no need to be so stubborn about gender..."
Natsume jumped up angrily and dunked again.
"Good guy. You didn't remember all the maxims I said, but you just remembered this one, right?"
"Hehehe, you're kidding."
"But, Young Patriarch, tell the truth."
"Are we really going to conquer the entire [Mist Hidden Village]?"
Natsume raised an eyebrow: "What, are you scared?"
Silver: "Of course not."
"That's right, wouldn't it be too shabby if there are only a few of us?"
Not just Yin, but also Ri Yao and Yue Ji on the side.
After learning the news, I was still a little scared.
This feeling is just like Xia's current life.
A special forces force suddenly threatened to destroy 'one of the five rogue nations'.
It’s really hard to have confidence!
Natsume: "Don't worry, I'm sure."
"It's time for you to see my true strength."
"Leave the opponent's main force to me in a moment, and you can just take care of the last hits!"
Natsume reassured with confidence.
myself at this moment.
But he possesses: a Sharingan that is comparable to the Eternal Mangekyō, three S-level ninjutsu, a divine weapon... plus a five-digit gold coin reserve.
Just dealing with one [Mist Hidden Village], I really can't think of the possibility of losing.
And he is dressed in a semi-god costume.
Wouldn't it be boring to stay cowardly and hide at home and try our best to survive?
A real man should be upright!
You should go straight to the man!
Even though I am still just a boy now...
Hearing this, Riyao and the others looked at each other.
He had no choice but to agree, and was prepared to accompany his young patriarch to this madness.
It’s really not possible, I really can’t beat him.
With the three of them desperately stalling, they might be able to buy the young patriarch some time to escape.
"But why choose [Mist Hidden Village]?"
Riyao asked puzzledly.
Natsume: "Because Kirigakure is easy to bully!"
Several people on Sunday:...
Kirigakure Village:...
Of course, being easy to bully is only a relative term.
Among the five hidden villages.
Except for the [Konoha Hidden Village] where there are baskets of forbidden arts and a lot of hangings on the walls.
The overall strength gap between the other four hidden villages is not too outrageous.
only.
Because both the third generation Mizukage and the fourth generation Mizukage were secretly controlled by others.
And pursues the policy of "Blood Mist".
This caused the internal strife in [Misty Hidden Village] to be extremely serious.
In the cruel environment of fighting each other, there are often only a few students in each ninja academy who survive to graduate.
Over the years, the number of ninjas in the entire [Mist Hidden Village] has naturally declined significantly, and their overall strength has been greatly weakened.
Of course, except that [Mist Hidden Village] is slightly weaker.
There are many other reasons as well.
For example, our own [Yanyin Village] has just been built and is in urgent need of a big victory to increase its deterrence.
There is nothing better than the glorious achievement of defeating one of the five hidden villages head-on.
Even more eye-catching and terrifying!
Moreover, there is this "Kirigakure Ghost Man" Momochi Zabuza leading the way.
This war can also be characterized as an internal coup in [Kirikakure Village].
He was just a 'helping hand' invited by the Kirigakure ninja.
A proper teacher with a good reputation will not overly create the reputation of [Yanyin Village] as warlike and violent.
Secondly, the treasury of [Mist Hidden Village] is also very tempting! It’s time to go on a “robbing the rich and giving to the poor” wave.
at last.
If you really want to overthrow [Mist Hidden Village] and defeat [Water Country].
By then, there will be no restrictions in the entire surrounding sea area.
Our own [Sea Trade Company] can operate unimpeded in more than ten surrounding countries and vigorously develop sea trade.
Even, expand the market into the populous [Water Country] and make a huge profit.
So calculated.
Do you kill four birds with one stone, or do you kill five birds with one stone?
do not care.
In short, there are many benefits and it is worth fighting for!
This is the reason why Natsume really plans to take action against [Mist Hidden Village].
He was definitely not short-sighted, just to covet Zabuza's reward of ten million taels.
Not even for the juicy and tender female ninja in [Kirikakure]!
…
In this way, the large cargo ship ran out of steam on the sea.
It lasted most of the day until dusk.
Finally, we arrived at a port in the Kingdom of Water.
At the port, all ordinary workers have been emptied, and only cargo ships are docked on the shore, floating silently.
"They're coming!"
Zabuza stood up with his sword in hand and looked at the harbor in the distance with a solemn expression.
Obviously, with his keen intuition, he has noticed that there are countless murderous intentions lurking on the shore.
"who?"
Zabuza: "A member of the Kirigakure Anbu."
Silver: "As expected of an ANBU ninja, he came so quickly!"
Zabuza: "It's still too late for you to leave now. Their target should only be me..."
Natsume chuckled and rubbed the knuckles of his hands.
"That's it. I can't swing the knife anymore, so why are you pretending?"
"Be quick and get out of the way."
"Open your eyes and take a good look at what the real killing efficiency is!"
Natsume took several steps forward.
Come to the leading part of the cargo ship and face a large number of Kirigakure ninjas lurking in the port.
Then, he grabbed it with his right hand.
A short knife solidified with rich chakra instantly appeared in his hand.
Obviously, to kill these little ninjas, you don't need the [Kunxu Sword].
next moment.
Natsume tiptoed, and her figure disappeared instantly.
The killing officially begins!
…
